    For driving on or off base always be aware of the road conditions and know what red, yellow, and green means in conjunction with the current road conditions. Always have a set of tire chains in your car so if you have to drive in heavy snowpacks or drifts on the road you will not have any problems. When you mentioned SRT which is Souris River Telephone. The company is member owned when I was stationed there, and they are great! Talking about activities during the seasons and the nightlife there brings back memories. When I was stationed there between 1986 to 1992. The local radio station would always broadcast the 90 days of Summer and I would always laugh and knew what it meant. Wintertime was very special because of Christmas and New Year's. Everybody would come together and celebrate by going to each other's houses and party. The nightlife in the Magic City of Minot can be one of hit or miss. When I was stationed there the Sheraton Inn was the place to be. You had Canadians come down from Canada to party with their American cousins. Places to go were a lot to explore like, the Souris River Wildlife Refuge just a little North of the base. If you are into history, go visit Fort Abraham Lincoln. Do they still have the billboard saying Custer was still alive when he left here? I can go on forever and will say this in closing. It is up to you to make your assignment either a good one or a bad one. If you become lonely, reach out to others because they might be like you. I thank you! Aim High!!!

    Hey, love the videos! I just wanted to know how you were able to get an apt off base so fast?? Most people I hear from say they had to stay in the dorms for like 2 years before moving off base. What did you get on your asvab and how did you study??

      Hi! Any airman can move out early ! Always keep a look out on the listing for moving out the dorms and you also have to do a budget plan and show you’re financially stable and can live on your own. I am 24 so I know age at times plays a part on that as well. Many people who I’ve met who get here do that! Fastest I’ve seen someone get out was within a week of getting here ! I didn’t do so hot on my asvab since I wasn’t in school before I joined, I feel like people who are straight out of high school would do really good on it though! I did get a ASVAB for dummies and I got a 40.

    What was the process on getting your car shipped to you?does the military pay for it to get shipped?

    • @mariselakapps
      @mariselakapps  8 місяців тому

      I pretty much looked up how i could get my car shipped to me from where my car is and the destination I'm at. Then a bunch of companies pop up and I honesty just went with what was cheaper and prayed I didn't get scammed.

    • @mariselakapps
      @mariselakapps  8 місяців тому +1

      It wasn't that difficult, I know you commented this 2 months ago and you are most likely here but it was just more trusting a company. I honestly forgot what company I used but my car took two weeks to get here from Florida. I only paid for 1200. Which was very cheap to me. Just be wise on who you you pick!

      I bought everything here, asides the couch. I got very lucky with a higher up giving this couch for free! One thing that's great around here is a lot of people come and go and there's always things for free!

    What rank are you just curious. I’m planning on enlisting for 6 years to advance to e3 sooner but I’ve heard if you’re e3 they’ll kick you out of the dorms. My biggest fear is them kicking me out and not giving me bah to get a apartment.

    • @mariselakapps
      @mariselakapps  8 місяців тому +2

      I'm a E-3 I'm also a four year, I came in as a E-2 and I also had college, so that helped! Some people get lucky getting kicked out especially if you're a female and in the newer dorms here! There are times that they don't give you BAH when they kick you out the dorms but I've only heard times that it kicks in a month after and that the pay you for the month that you had to pay out of pocket. It varies from people.
